    Leave to appeal was refused because the jury received appropriate directions about inconsistencies and inference by association, the trial judge properly exercised his discretion in managing jury concerns, the application to adduce fresh evidence lacked a reasonable explanation and would not have changed the outcome, and there was no substantiated lurking doubt rendering the conviction unsafe.
